Nooooobs
I was called to Ambat, then after working on the issue a bit had this conversation:
[11:13] Rosy : how do i say things out loud
[11:14] Osprey Therian: Using Voice?
[11:14] Rosy : yes
[11:15] Osprey Therian: Make sure Voice is activated in Preferences. There's a toggle to speak - often middle mouse button.
[11:15] Rosy : preferences? where is that?
[11:15] Osprey Therian: Shortcut = Control-P
[11:16] Rosy : found it
[11:16] Osprey Therian: Is anyone here using Voice? I'm not as this puter doesn't do audio very well.

INTERVIEW WITH THE
I was just setting up to film a bit when I was called to Ambat because of griefing. I defused the situation (helps to be uninvolved) and then danced for ages with a formerly outraged Ambatian - it was fun. It had been complete madness when I arrived - people yelling and swearing, shooting, aggressive actions, and some very large body parts used as griefer tools. EVERYBODY was acting nutty so I just yelled at everyone then talked to everyone and danced for ages. The griefer was actually very sweet - although this isn't a good start to a career. As griefers go I liked him, however.
Osprey Therian: I've always wondered what the thrill is.
Osprey Therian: I should interview you!
Young Man: I get an adrienline rush when enraged and they did start it
Young Man: And I consider this training for the real world
Young Man: And I tell everyone I go up against where to find me in real life
Young Man: So this isn't no kiddie shit because this can be real shit anytime they want XD
Osprey Therian: Why ask for trouble?
Young Man: I get a thrill out of it and I get respect when I come out on top
Young Man: And I feel my violence when directed at those who deserve it makes the world a better place
Young Man: You will
Young Man: but I bang the hardest
Young Man: Nice meeting you though
Young Man: I think I saw you fly over here like once
Osprey Therian: You too
Young Man: But you never come in and say hi
Young Man: I figured you where in the area and saw the local chat and where like wtf
Osprey Therian: I'm around - and on an alt as well
Young Man: Oh did you see how X destroyed the local chat with spam?
Young Man: Not going to get more into it
Young Man: I speak the truth, an invidual started it
Young Man: I took him down, his girl came in, I took her down
Young Man: Old man here took a shot
Young Man: Had some newbie try to make a copy of my avatar, but I took my dick out and kept bumping him around and he just said you freak and logged off fast
Young Man: and never came back
Young Man: But you can say I'm the aggressor and if you head all the details my actions would sicker you way more than anything they did but they did start it
Young Man: He is dickriding but play along
Young Man: I'm out in a few
Young Man: Just know when I'm back I'll have an alt.
Young Man: I'm a retired greifer and hassler
Young Man: I mean new account not alt
Young Man: But I come out of retirement when provoked into it
Osprey Therian: oh, you :-D
Young Man: Well we're friend then
Osprey Therian: :-D
Young Man: Come by your place more
Young Man: you should
Young Man: I never knew you where a real real person
Young Man: But I've never talked to you
Young Man: Only second time I've ever seen you
Osprey Therian: gawd
Young Man: I caught a Glimpse of you ages ago
Young Man: You where either away here or flew over fast
Verdict:
Young Man: Distraction is often the best weapon and you used it well
Osprey Therian: I should interview you!
Young Man: I get an adrienline rush when enraged and they did start it
Young Man: And I consider this training for the real world
Young Man: And I tell everyone I go up against where to find me in real life

I'm absolutely ecstatic! I've been working for WEEKS trying to get music at Ambat, having to contact and get permission from the stream owner as well as dealing with multiple helpful Lindens and LL its juggernaughty self. Finally, today the music was set up. I rezzed my Syncdancer and within a minute couples were dancing all over the infohub :-D It was awesome fun, and I even got a nice IM from someone who not only wrote an nice blogpost, but said, "ty for creating Ambat! This little mound of dirt has been a very important place to me :)"That's Blondin by the Hippobookamus. He was the one who threw the switch. Thank you also to Joppa Linden, Teeple Linden, and Martini in the Morning radio.

Ambat, Beloved Infohub
Ambat Regular: There's a rumor that ambat infohub is being sold to vampire named Zeppo. Have you heard anything about it?
Osprey Therian: Hah - no - since it's Linden land I doubt it.
Osprey Therian: Where did you hear it?
Ambat Regular: we are forming a mob down in the sanbox below
Ambat Regular: in Mal's sandbox
Ambat Regular: and the rumor is that the whole sim is being sold
Osprey Therian: The sim is mainland owned by many people.
Osprey Therian: It's just an idle rumour prolly the vampires trying to get zombies worked up.
Osprey Therian: I need to make Vamp-X-pire
Ambat Regular: rofl
Osprey Therian: ;-D
Ambat Regular: I'll stake a few for you
Ambat Regular: it still the prettiest place around
Ambat Regular: you made a place different from the others
Ambat Regular: everyone is easy and friendly and not trying to make sport of anyone
Ambat Regular: is why we hang around
So I made Vamp-X-pire:
And Ambat Regular and her friend sprayed the infohub down :-DIt matches Zomb-Off* in its usefulness. It's from the maker of tried and true remedies Foot-Shado-B-Gon** and FYSYX*** Spray.
* Named after Doc.
** Relic of the olden days of very awful foot shadows.
*** A sim border crossing spray, basically. It was from the olden days before the upgrading of Havok, but is just as useful today.

I <3 AmbatI need to replace the poseballs at Ambat (which ran off long ago), but it is sweet to see impromptu gatherings in the tent like this one, spotted by Ozymandias when he teleported home (he lives on the top of the main tentish thing to guard Ambat) just now after investigating myrl.

08 August 2008
Yesterday almost every login put me at a hub of some kind, in a gigantic pile-up of avatars. It went away, but was back I think, or at least thing were jumping at Ambat this morning.
K: hi =- just wanted to let you know that "avatar name" is standing at the landing point of your infohub Bloodline Biting EVERY SINGLE avatar that rezzes in - terribly annoying
Me: The person bitten has to give permission through a drop-down notice. It may be annoying, but it doesn't seem like a big deal. Thank you for letting me know about it, though. There seems to be some kind of routing issue - I wind up with my log-ins being routed to hubs - I think it's just causing a temporary pile-up. Best to tp away using a landmark.

Ambat, My Ambat
I LOVE Ambat - always have. When Tor gave me a choice of places to build an Infohub I was overjoyed to get Ambat. Today someone IMed me needing help to get their info in the Advertiser, and when I popped in they had managed to do it, so I wasn't needed. I stood atop the red tent, eyes wide at seeing this new person:
Could it be Alonso has turned into a real boy?
Then a sweet person IMed me this:
Krystal: Wow....I just wanted to say hello...I love Ambat and know you are the person behind it!
Osprey Therian: Thank you so much!
Osprey Therian: I just popped in as someone was having trouble with the Advertiser.
Krystal: ah
Krystal: well.....my friends and I come here a good bit
Osprey Therian: I need to do a little clean-up here, I think - some of the pose balls and things wandered off.
Krystal: oh
Osprey Therian: I'm glad you like it - you have made my day!
Krystal: hehe
Krystal: have a good day...and again...nice to meet you
Krystal: :)
Today is just full of cheery, happy things - going to jin shin I noticed people were even driving happily.
